    As good as the hype. Wireless connection never cut-out unlike other brand new routers. Running Tomato firmware, which is awesome.      » READ MORE

    allows for great configuration flexibility, provides every commonly available option as well as just about the best in terms of broad compatibility of home routers/firewall/access-point. it does it all brilliantly.      » READ MORE

    This became my second WRT54GL, after having one for over a year. Both were flashed with DD-WRT. Using it currently to share an internet connection to another building on the property. Worked far better than I expected. At least 200 ft and a few walls stand in the way, but I can get almost full speed in the other building.      » READ MORE

    This is a long overdue review as I ordered one back in June. Followed through with the instructions on the website instead of the mini-CD that came with it. I'm talking about easy till the point of dummy proof. Wireless is awesome and I can get a signal 30 feet away. This router will continue to get good reviews, nothing I can add.      » READ MORE

    Like many others, as soon as I received this device, I flashed it with a 3rd party firmware, in this case, Tomato. No trouble ever since, solid signal, and even when boosting the antenna output to 70mw there's still no noticeable heat increase! It's sitting in a closet right now along with my cable modem, and possibly a small file server soon too. The closet remains below room temperature. Overall, highly recommended, very solid showing from Linksys/Cisco, as long as you upgrade that firmware!       » READ MORE

    I have purchased 5 of these routers for myself and friends. Tomato Firmware is the best and it never breaks on me. Excellent router for it's value. Cannot wait until an N router can use custom firmware as well too.      » READ MORE

    I got this for my apartment and it works. I'm not into flashing the firmware, so keeping it simple and using a bit of encryption has been relatively easy. The speed is good: I downloaded an 11mb email in roughly 20-30 seconds (I have a good internet cable connection), which is more than fine. I haven't done any gaming so I can't speak to that personally.       » READ MORE

    I just got this router recently seeing I found no need to really to move on to draft N at the moment. What I discovered was that, this router povides a much much stronger signal than my old dead D-Link ever did even when it was new. I also found that the signal is very stable and worked well with my wireless D-Link card in my old pc with out much configeration having to be done on the router's settings... unlike the periodical drops my dead D-Link router provided. I jsut hope that this router lasts much longer then my previouse router.       » READ MORE
